This book is a compilation of narratives and mainly descriptives that I wrote as practice work for my IGCSE First Language English course. They are mostly unreviewed and I do not claim that they will achieve top band marks. However, it will be helpful in understanding the basic format I followed to produce stories and descriptions. Leave any requests in comments or contact me and I'll do my best to answer.

Do you find yourself writing he nodded, she shook her head, he shrugged, over and over again? It gets tedious, and doesn't help at all when it comes to pin pointing your character's actual emotions. So I've made a book using notes I've been collecting over a few years to help you chose an alternative way to show that your character is angry, or sad, etc, plus many other writing tips and resources. Doesn't, he blinked at his watch, read better than, he looked at his watch ? Doesn't, he slugged across the wet cement, read better than, he walked down the street slowly. Avoid the white room in your story and replace telling with showing to give your readers a much better experience. **** When Alice storms across the room instead of walks, we know she's angry. We're expecting suspense. We're waiting for the next action. Maybe she'l punch a wall? Shout at her friend? Much better than, Alice walked across the room angrily, which gives your reader nothing to imagine.

I decided to create this collection of idioms and expressions to share the fun with everyone and to learn how to use idiomatic English. ¶¶ Special thanks to @MartaxSofia for making the wonderful covers of the series...¶¶ ***I DO NOT OWN THE COPYRIGHT to the material I'm posting in this book.

I used Bryn Donovan's master lists of facial expressions and body language and re-sorted them based on the emotion into one list. Since it is useful to me in this format, I thought I'd put it up here for others' use.
